Král Hadrník - Kroniky Castellane 2 – Clareová Cassandra (2026)

The second volume in the epic Castellane Chronicles fantasy series follows Kel Saren, Prince Conor’s double, as he searches for the traitor behind a massacre at the royal court. The only person who can provide a clue is the notorious Rag King, ruler of the criminal underworld. The trail leads back to the royal palace, where a dark conspiracy to destroy the royal family flourishes amid extravagant nobility and lavish parties, led by the monstrous Artal Gremont, fiancé of the woman Kel adores. Meanwhile, Lin Casterová must face the consequences of the greatest risk she has ever taken. To save her dying friend, she declared herself a reborn Goddess, and the leader of her people is now prepared to test her power. Failure means exile, and only another dangerous deception can save her. As tensions in Castellane reach breaking point, Prince Conor demands that Lin cure his father’s madness. The king is bound by the snares of ancient magic, and Lin cannot resist its power, just as she cannot deny her growing passion for the prince. Lin and Kel must decide whom they can trust, but any wrong move means death, or something even worse. The book is in Czech.
